My passion for desserts started in 2007 (don't get me wrong, I’ve always loved sweets but never thought I could make them :)...) so I began by collecting family recipes and baking for friends and family. With a Hispanic background I have been able to fuse that Latin flavor into my recipes giving a unique and unexpected, well let’s say twist to every dessert.

Everybody seems to love it! There is no better feeling than seeing someone’s expression when they take their first bite and know that they just want to have it all!!!

But it wasn't until 2010 when one of my dearest friends’ Sole suggested that I take my hobby to the next level. At first I wasn't sure, I mean I always had it in the back of my mind but never really thought I could do it. Then Sole's baby shower was coming up and I was baking a cake and mini cupcakes as favors! She kept insisting that I promote myself at her party but I had doubts. I jokingly though about a name, but Sole took it very seriously and a day before the shower she shows up at my place with business cards that she designed for me to give out at her party. And just like that canela & azucar (spanish: canela y azucar and english: cinnamon & sugar) was born...

Since then I have been taking courses at the Cambridge Culinary School to sharpen my skills hoping one day to have my very own bakery.

I must say that I have truly been blessed with the support of my family and friends who have gone the extra mile to support me in this endeavor... I hope one day this dream will translate into a small cozy family owned bakery where I’ll be able to delight you with all kinds of desserts...
